Kyle Lowry poured in 31 points while DeMar DeRozan added 30 to lift the Toronto Raptors to their fifth straight win Monday, a 112-100 victory over the beleaguered Brooklyn Nets.
It was a fitting performance by the duo on a night announcers reminded fans to vote the Raptors into next month's NBA all-star game in Toronto.
DeRozan's big game came hours after he was named one of 30 finalists for the U.S. Olympic team.
Terrence Ross added 12 for Toronto (26-15), while Patrick Patterson finished with 12.
Brook Lopez topped the Nets (11-31) with 29 points, while Joe Johnson added 22.
The Raptors were playing their first of seven games at home, finally back after an 11-day road trip that culminated with a 106-103 overtime win versus Orlando at London last Thursday.
